It appears we may have survived a rather unusually long and cold winter here in the Bluegrass State. Hopefully the latest thawing out will last and bring us much greener days ahead as the temperatures rise and the sun shines.

The warmer temperatures have certainly thawed out some of God’s smellier creatures. Anybody seen any skunks? I’ve had several folks asking me about the number of skunks they’ve seen killed on the roads lately.
